Event description
This session has been arranged specifically for practitioners in CSC and PS who carry out supervisions.
It is widely acknowledged that for supervision to be effective it should be reflective and that it should include critical analysis, reflection and emotional support. To a large extent, this is dependent on the skills, knowledge and availability of the supervisor. This workshop is designed for supervisors to support and empower them in the delivering of effective reflective supervision. This workshop introduces the participants to the fundamentals of reflective supervision, offering a mix of presentation, film, individual work, small group and large group discussion. The aim is to create a space for open discussion and reflection for participants encouraging people to share their experience and their practice wisdom.
The workshop will:
Build practice supervisor’s confidence, skills and knowledge in reflective supervision. This workshop will set out your role in supporting practitioners in direct practice with children, young people, adults and families.
You will discuss what reflective supervision is and will practice using a reflective cycle. You will also explore how the emotional impact of work can be addressed in reflective supervision.
During the workshop, you will consider your role in supporting inclusive and anti-racist supervision and how issues of inclusion, diversity and power can be acknowledged and addressed through the supervisory relationship.
